[QUOTE=Joakim Lindb;29350298]Terraformed Mars. I will release it when i figure out how to make the water specular without making the entire planet white.[/QUOTE] you should make earth into a mars-like planet now heh.

If you need anything translated, I can do that for you.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;29376142]you should make earth into a mars-like planet now heh.[/QUOTE] I'll be right on it. Also, the update will be tomorrow. EDIT : I can't make a mars-earth, because i can't find a high resolution heightmap of earth.[QUOTE=AstroDigital@yandex.ru]Also, on the forum i'm on, there was a suggestion that i liked, maybe you could include > it in a future version? The suggestion --- I'm kinda hoping for official in-game tools for > terraforming and un-terraforming. And maybe the ability to concrete-up areas. Man, that > would make so many good screenies... --- Maybe in future version, not tomorrow version...[/QUOTE]

I made a silly thing while trying to change planets I turned the Moon into a Earth-like planet [IMG]http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w306/Tuskin38/scr00000.jpg[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Tuskin;29377047]I made a silly thing while trying to change planets I turned the Moon into a Earth-like planet [/QUOTE]Cool, i've also made my own. I apoligise if it looks wierd, that's because there isn't any surface texture that fits the heightmap.

Or, you could also ask me to convert a texture you've found on the web and i'll do it.

I kinda made Reach from Halo, its around the correct star as well. using the Moon's bump map because Reach has a lot of craters I basically took Earth and played around with the parameters [IMG]http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w306/Tuskin38/scr00001-1.jpg[/IMG] It needs more green and thicker atmosphere [editline]23rd April 2011[/editline] More Reach [IMG]http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w306/Tuskin38/scr00002-1.jpg[/IMG] I need to figure out how to add icecaps [editline]23rd April 2011[/editline] I had to move Reach out of the comfort zone and into the warm zone. In the comfort zone it was too damn cold, summer was -30c and winter was -60c

Do you guys want more pics? I have a few.

[QUOTE=showtek;29381921]How do u make planets ?![/QUOTE] Edit Solarsys.sc in data/catalogs/planets Also, i remade my moon texture, because i found a hires moon texture that fitted the heightfield. So it's alot better now. [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr000032.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr000041.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr00005.jpg[/IMG] Should i put up a download link for the moon as well? It's completely bug free. Also, both this and the mars texture was made quickly using pre-made textures, so you may find parts that are identical. They are also not realistic, only photo-realistic.

That looks pretty good

Space Engine 0.93 is up now.

awesome, now i need figure out way to merge my changes into new version :)

New version, yay! I put up a mirror on my site if you want it quick. [url]http://applesforgeeks.com/space-engine-version-93-released/[/url]

I found a planet in a cluster near the large magellean(sp?) cloud that contained life at an older age of earth, so i thought, what if that life had launched a spaceship. As they left their outer atmosphere for the first time in their species history, they happened to look out upon the vastness of space and saw our humble galaxy in the distance.

I found the terraformed solar system the creator said he would include, and guess what? It's awesome! This terraformed venus looks awesome! [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr000001.jpg[/IMG] It even has a terraformed mercury as a moon! [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr000013.jpg[/IMG] Terraformed mercury close up [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr000023.jpg[/IMG] No wounder it's a giant desert, i would never want to live here. [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr000033.jpg[/IMG] Mars, however is a diffrent story. It even looks better than my terraformed texture! And this is procedurally generated! [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr000042.jpg[/IMG] Guess what this is? The sun? No, it's Jupiter. [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr000051.jpg[/IMG] This is europa, i believe i've seen this somewhere before, but i can't quite put my finger on it... [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr00006.jpg[/IMG] Aha! 2001, a space odyssey! [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr00007.jpg[/IMG] I believe this is ganymede. [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr00008.jpg[/IMG] Then this must be callisto! [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr00009.jpg[/IMG] Also, as a bonus. It's now possible to go to the center of the galaxy! I set the magnitude of stars to 15 and HOLY. [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr00010.jpg[/IMG] Here's a gas giant in the middle of the galaxy, i wounder why it hasn't been sucked in by a black hole yet. [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/scr00011.jpg[/IMG] That was all, for now.

It crashes for me.

do you install .93 over top of 0.90full?

[QUOTE=Tuskin;29420249]do you install .93 over top of 0.90full?[/QUOTE] It would be best if you moved or deleted the .90 installation instead of overwriting. At least, that's what I did.

[QUOTE=mchapra;29418129]It crashes for me.[/QUOTE] Downloading the updated .90 from the website fixed it for me. [url]http://spaceengine.org/load/core/spaceengine_polnaja_versija_0_90/1-1-0-6[/url]

remember Black Holes and Neutron Stars are represented just as star with extreme Mass but nothing else (visual effects or behaviour of userdefined/procedural objects in orbit) same as asteroids and comets i assume that's unfinished part of engine at least when i build my own system with these ... so far i still fail to define more stars in one star system than 2

I wish I could get my hands on the I-Novae engine..

Going 2.1 kilo parsec per second seems to crash the game.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;29441726]~surprisingly~ hey guys my game crashes when i go at ftl speeds shit game please fix[/QUOTE] I think he was joking :v: And it's 217000 times faster than light :science:

I'm really hoping that eventually, you'll be able to tinker with planets in-game, like I said before. As in adding cities and glassing areas. We could burn the Get out frog onto Iraq.

[QUOTE=Khaleet;29440487]I wish I could get my hands on the I-Novae engine..[/QUOTE] And it runs at 100fps on an 8800GT...

This new release won't stop crashing, it's something about some texture normal generator.
